Distinguished Lecture Series

Each year CRADL holds its Distinguished Lecture Series.

Most recently (May 1st-2nd 2014), CRADL sponsored a Theory of Mind Symposium, and Dr. Henry Wellman from the University of Michigan presented the opening lecture titled “Learning a Theory of Mind.” In addition to Dr. Wellman’s lecture, there was also a Panel Discussion that included Dr. Wellman, Dr. Amy Lederberg (Educational Psychology), Dr. Lauren Adamson (Psychology) and Dr. Rebecca Williamson (Psychology).
